Ryan is probably being suspended as a warning sign to the other CSI's. The writers maybe wanted it to be clear that Diddy's character can do almost anything he wants, and used Ryan as an example of that. You can see in the extended promo Diddy's pretty much telling that to Calleigh. (REGARDLESS of what his character's name is, I shall always call him Diddy).
I don't think we'll get into any of Ryan's feelings or whatever. He seems to be the kind of character that, lately, just gets in the same kind of trouble (or has the same kind of bad luck), bounces back, and moves on. Who knows? Maybe they're doing that on purpose, giving Ryan a tough time without much depth, and later they will act on it?
Yes. I think that they need to give Ryan more depth. I had not really thought about it before, but you do not see a lot of emotion from him.
In "and they're offed" there was a show of emotion, but it still did not seem like much. I don't know, maybe I am reading this wrong.
